The Lonoke County Prosecutor is calling it vigilante justice. The defense calls it a father protecting his child. In this Hidden Killers interview, Tony Brueski and Bob Motta unpack the State’s new filing in the Aaron Spencer case — a motion to use body-cam footage recorded three months before the shooting.

They thought they were saving a life. Jennifer and Robbie Tower opened their Florida home to a 14-year-old orphan from Ukraine — a boy they believed they could love into healing. Eight years later, that same boy is accused of murdering them in cold blood. This is the chilling story behind what the media is calling “The Evil Orphan” case. Prosecutors say Dima Tower, now 21, slaughtered his adoptive parents inside their North Port home, leaving them lying head-to-head on the floor, surrounded by

In a stunning new legal twist, Danity Kane alum Dawn Richard is taking on Sean “Diddy” Combs once again — and this time, the allegations reach all the way inside a federal prison. According to newly filed court documents on November 5, 2025, Richard’s attorneys claim that Diddy tampered with a key witness in her civil case while incarcerated. The alleged incident, said to have occurred in September 2024, underscores what prosecutors have long warned: that Combs’ influence and intimidation didn’t

In this Hidden Killers exclusive, Tony Brueski sits down with defense attorney Bob Motta to dissect the bizarre twists in the Melodee Buzzard disappearance. Ashlee Buzzard, the child’s mother, is now facing a felony false-imprisonment charge — a development investigators say isn’t directly tied to Melodee’s disappearance, but raises serious questions about control, motive, and manipulation.

In a stunning twist in the Gilgo Beach serial killer saga, accused murderer Rex Heuermann has officially been cleared in the 1994 strangulation death of Colleen McNamee, a Long Island sex worker long believed to be one of his potential victims. For years, McNamee’s name was quietly linked to the growing list of women found murdered across Suffolk County — a list that defined Heuermann as the face of one of the most disturbing serial murder cases in American history.

Convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell may be serving a 20-year sentence — but according to a federal whistleblower and a new congressional letter, she’s living more like a guest than an inmate. House Democrats led by Rep. Jamie Raskin are demanding answers from the Department of Justice after explosive allegations surfaced that Maxwell is receiving VIP treatment at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas. Reports claim she’s enjoying custom-delivered meals, after-hours private workouts, unmonitored

Sean “Diddy” Combs, once the self-crowned king of luxury, has apparently been reduced to the lowest form of intoxication known to man: prison hooch.Reports claim the former mogul was caught with homemade alcohol inside Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution — the kind of foul, bubbling concoction inmates brew in trash bags using fruit, sugar, and desperation. Forget Cîroc. Forget top-shelf anything. What Diddy’s allegedly drinking behind bars is called pruno, better known as toilet wine. It’s

When nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard vanished in early October, few could have predicted how fast her mother’s behavior would spiral. Now, new court documents and witness statements reveal a terrifying encounter — one that prosecutors call false imprisonment by violence, menace, fraud, and deceit. According to the sworn statement of Tyler Brewer, a legal document assistant and mandated reporter, he went to meet Ashlee Buzzard on November 6, 2025, to discuss helping locate Melodee.

A rape. A strangulation. Video evidence. Multiple felony counts. And an 18-year-old who should’ve faced decades in prison — but didn’t. In Payne County, Oklahoma, Jesse Butler pleaded no contest to multiple violent felonies: rape, attempted rape, assault by strangulation, and rape by instrumentation. Each count carried heavy time — up to 78 years combined. But thanks to a stunning plea deal, Butler walked free. No prison. Just community service, counseling, and “youthful offender” status. The

When police arrested Bryan Kohberger — the criminology Ph.D. student accused of murdering four University of Idaho students — they found a single book with underlining on page 118. Months later, reporting from the Idaho Statesman revealed that book was Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jeffers — a self-help classic about conquering fear through action.

Two headlines. Two tragedies. And one justice system collapsing under its own contradictions. In California and Oklahoma — two stories this week reveal the same ugly truth: justice is selective. One mother sits in jail while her missing daughter remains unaccounted for. Another man, accused of horrific violence, walks free. First: The Melodee Buzzard case. Nine-year-old Melodee vanished in early October. Her mother, Ashlee Buzzard, was arrested November 7 on a false-imprisonment charge, bail set

“She lied about everything.” That’s what former Massachusetts Deputy Police Chief Robert Devine told the state’s oversight commission when he was asked about Sandra Birchmore — a 23-year-old woman found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment in 2021. But behind that phrase lies one of the most disturbing stories of police corruption, grooming, and betrayal in modern American law enforcement.

The real story isn’t just that the Epstein investigation was shut down — it’s how it was shut down. And why everyone inside stayed quiet. Former FBI Behavioral Program Chief Robin Dreeke joins me for an unflinching look at the inner workings of institutional obedience — the invisible forces that make people protect power instead of truth. Through a behavioral lens, Robin breaks down how fear travels through a bureaucracy — not as orders, but as tone, silence, and career calculus. He explains the
